Every night, we embark on extraordinary journeys through landscapes of our own creation. These nocturnal adventures have inspired humanity's greatest achievements-Beyonce's visual albums, Paul McCartney's "Yesterday," and Stephen King's bestselling novels all emerged from dreams. As a neurosurgeon, I've witnessed how electrical stimulation of specific brain regions triggers dream-like experiences in patients during awake brain surgery. Dreams aren't messages from gods or demons as once believed, but products of normal brain electrophysiology-sometimes more electrically active than our waking brain. This nightly dose of wonder may occupy not just two hours but potentially a third of our lives. What if these aren't mere sleep hallucinations but a different form of thinking that enables creativity, problem-solving, and self-knowledge in ways we're only beginning to understand?
